Re: [libreoffice-design] Hide ruler by default?
I am using ruler in Writer and also in Imress and Draw.

Re: [libreoffice-design] Hide ruler by default?
I never use the rulers, see no need for them in a word processor, or in a presentation. I can not speak for Mirek now but on his blog he talks about the Citrus UI hiding them by default. but I can say that in his UI mock ups there are no rulers. here is a link to his blog where he talks about it http://clickortap.wordpress.com/2010/10/27/citrus-tabs/ On Thu, Oct 13, 2011 at 6:41 AM, RGB ES rgb.m...@gmail.com wrote: 2011/10/13 Glenn de Groot glenn_de_gr...@hotmail.com Hello people, yesterday I had a pretty good idea IMHO.I would like to see the ruler hidden by default in Libre Office 3.5.I know nobody who uses the ruler (on any office application), and I don´t use it either.Microsoft Office, Google Docs and I believe there are others, hide the ruler by default.Try it, go to View and deselect the ruler, it makes Libre Office a lot simpler.People who do need the ruler probably know where to find it.

Re: [libreoffice-design] Hide ruler by default?
Hy Personnaly, I always used Rulers (On word 2003, OOo, SYmphony or LibO), to place horizontally text or headers/footers. But I think it's not the case of the majority . Then, if rulers have to be kept, I think we should try to find a way to have them more discrete, because they are not very sexy, they take a big place and are not used a lot. It should really be investigated what do you think ?

RE: [libreoffice-design] Hide ruler by default?
Hi, I too think the LibO should hide rulers by default. Just add some obvious button to show the ruler or do some sort of auto-hide animation.
